Change this:
GRUB_DEFAULT="saved"
to
GRUB_DEFAULT="Fedora GNU/Linux, with Xen hypervisor"
Sorry, that's what I meant by "tried setting it manually in
/etc/grub/default". I believe this *used to* work.
I wonder if anybody else is successfully booting Xen with f20's grub2?
That looks like a bug in GRUB. If you use the upstream version of
GRUB do you see it?
I haven't gotten far enough along to compile and install an upstream,
but just to note progress, this looks like the commit that started the
option (which seems OK at first glance):
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/commit/util/grub.d/20_linux_xen...
and here's a general git browser search for xen (not seeing an obvious
breaking commit):
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/log/?qt=grep&q=xen
